Sourdough French toast is the ultimate healthy breakfast upgrade—delicious, hearty, and ready in just 5 minutes!

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients (Serves 4)

  • 4 thick slices of sourdough bread, day-old preferred

  • 3 large eggs

  • 1/2 cup milk (or plant-based alternative)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1 tbsp maple syrup (optional, for a touch of sweetness)

  • Butter or coconut oil for the pan

Instructions

Step-by-Step Method Step 1: Prep Your Batter

In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and maple syrup. The cinnamon adds warmth, the vanilla a comforting aroma—it’s basically the scent of weekend mornings.

Step 2: Soak the Bread

Dip each slice of sourdough in the mixture. Let it soak for 10–15 seconds on each side. Don’t rush this—sourdough is hearty and can take it.

Step 3: Cook It Up

Heat a skillet over medium and melt a little butter or coconut oil. Cook each slice until golden brown, about 2–3 minutes per side. The outside should be crisp, the inside soft and custardy.

Step 4: Serve and Inspire

 

Top with fresh berries, a dusting of powdered sugar, and a drizzle of maple syrup. Or keep it savory with a poached egg and avocado. The choice is yours!

Notes

Quick Tips for Busy Mornings

 

  • Use pre-sliced sourdough to save time.

  • Mix the egg batter the night before.

  • Leftovers? They reheat beautifully in a toaster oven.
